Their 2009 release, the 45 Years Family Reserve, landed the top spot on Cigar Aficionado's 2009 Cigar of the Year. The Family Reserve will consist of a series of 6 cigars with one size to be launched each year until Padron's 50th anniversary in 2014.

Cigar Origin

Nicaragua

Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

Anonymous Hi when will you have in the patron reserva millennium?

Posted 2/12/2016

NeptuneCigar.com Pricing and a release date have not yet been announced by the company but when they release it we will have it.

This cigar is my go to for an epic smoke. Beautifully made. It is a full bodied cigar with an easy draw. You can taste the leather and pepper without it being overwhelming. Consistently top three cigars I’ve ever smoked, if not the best.

While all of these cigars were excellent as usual (they are Padrons, after all) the Family Reserve #45 didn't exactly live up to the hype or the price. Maybe my expectations were way too over the top. Still, an excellent group of cigars and these would make an excellent gift.

The Family Reserve 45 maduro took Cigar Aficionado's magazine cigar of the year back in 2009. They are wrapped in a dark Maduro leaf and are complex, flavorful, rich with notes of spice cedar, nuts and subtle floral accents. These beauties come in a box of 10 cigars. This cigar like all of the Padron cigars has the signature of consistency written all over them, something that has become a little rare in our industry lately. Easy draw, solid construction, smooth creamy aged tobaccos with a slight hint of pepper on the start and finish, not overpowering just the right amount. In our endless search for the perfect cigar many of you will find this your favorite. Love to pair this cigar with a 12 year old Scotch.

After smoking a number of Padron’s I finally arrived on what is off the measurement scale. I don’t notice Aroma much but I surely notice all other areas. Precisely wrapped and box pressed tight but carefully and correct. I am about 5 years into 88-96 rated cigars but hands down, this is the best! Stalwart flavor, proper burn, notes of cedar, roasted chestnuts, a slight creeping restraine sweetness too! In a class, autonomously, and above all others I have fired up, easily a 98 or 99..Exceptional!

My special occasion cigar. I had 4 left from my last box but bought another box so I would have plenty of these babies for the holidays and my son possibly getting to come home on leave for Christmas. This is the cigar that turned me on to Padron and now I keep a box from all 4 serie in my humidor and love them all. Try one of these and I think you will agree with me that Padron is the gold standard for what a cigar should be.

This is a great stick - and i have a few more in the humidor (I wish Neptune would let you easily edit review or add 2nd reviews). I did a double punch and it had a pretty loose draw, might have been better with a single punch. Pure baker's chocolate and cocoa powder with cedar notes, basically the whole way through. Smooth and extremely well balanced, but not as raisiny or rich as some younger blends (looking at you Oliva Serie O maduro toro). I wouldn't actually put this much above the 1926 Maduro TAA or No. 9, except to say it felt more "refined". Not sure that's worth a few extra bucks, but this is definitely a stick worth trying if you haven't stepped up to the Family Reseve maduros yet. A few burn issues that may have been my fault, incluind a relight. Damn Tinder taking too much attention lol.

Bought 2 of these from Neptune and one was definitely skinnier than the other. Smoked the fatter one last night. Beautiful cocoa flavor from first draw through to final 1/3. In a way it is significantly more complex and significantly more subtle than the 1926 maduros -- the No. 1 and No. 9 have been my go-to Padrons. From reading, this probably has to do with the 10-year aged tobacco supposedly in this blend. Really a great, rewarding, rich-smoke experience. Would buy more. Only complaint is the final 1/3 got a bit harsh and hot towards the nub - not totally "nubbable" as they say.

I waited a while to order a box of these, but I clearly waited too long. This is an excellent and evolving stick. Cold draw is beautiful. First 3rd is super smooth with espresso and raisin notes, but mostly s'mores. About the halfway point you pick up the spice; I'm not talking about the stuff in your pantry, I'm talking about jalapeño spice. I'm a retrohaler, so it's tingling my sinuses. The balance of the smoke is spicy and nutty, with occasional hints of anise. Aroma is mushrooms and only mushrooms. Burn was occasionally wonky but always self corrected. I smoked three of these before this review and all were consistent. Worth the price? Yup!

I just want to start off this review by saying that this cigar is pound-for-pound my favorite all-time smoke. Padron knocks it out of the park yet again with the Family Reserve 85 maduro. At a glance, this cigar has a silky, chocolaty wrapper to compliment the sleek box-pressed style. Upon lighting, your senses are hit with that characteristic Padron-punch and flavor. In the first 1/3 the flavors are slightly leathery and nutty with hints of chocolate beneath. As you approach the second half of the cigar, the flavors of chocolate and nuts become more pronounced and remain consistent through to the end. The ash throughout is a beautiful white ash and an even burn that needs no relighting. Overall, I would rate this cigar a solid 10/10. Smoke to the nub!

As I seat on my patio I have a Family Reserve #85 that I have been enjoying for 40 minutes. The
white ash is 4" long and I can only say life is good. This is the best of the best. Everyone should treat themselves to this exceptional cigar that is worth the price. The ash is pure white & I have less than inch left and the there is no let up in aroma,taste.

Padron is known for their mark of excellence in the cigar making world. As of the end of last year, they released their 50 year anniversary blend which was an instant hit, even made its way to Cigar Aficionado's prestigious Top 10. At a glance the dark wrapper looks like it came right out of a box of delicious chocolates. The smoke lasting about 45 minutes to an hour, it was nothing short of perfection. It burned evenly throughout the whole cigar and even kept a tight ash even to the half way mark. The taste was bold and magnificent, pushing its way to being my favorite Padron. This cigar rightfully deserves to belong in the Top 10 of ANY list, along with any smokers own personal humidor.

I was skeptical of it at first due to its size( I'm a 60 ring plus guy) but once I lit it, that's when the little guy stepped up. Full of tan smoke with the draw of loose wrap. It definitely has that Padron punch and spice. Makes me want to buy more of this size if they can show up this big.
